Cool thanks guys!

Duh...actually it's a Singer 15-90. You can still use the same manuals, just skip the potted motor/housing info in the 15-91 manuals.Originally Posted by gmcttr
For Singer fans, this ID 'binary tree' might be helpful, though some of the features probably need the machine 'in hand' - i.e. hard to see in a pic.

Perhaps this thread is done now, but I'm super excited to finally have my own thread injector so I'm going to share anyway!
I picked up this little gem from a lovely little Dutch woman through Kijiji last week. Paid $50 and it's in great condition. She took really good care of it and it has all the original feet and guide attachments. It sews better than any machine I have used and was able to handle 4 layers of denim with no trouble. I haven't tested it yet but I'm hoping it can sew webbing as well.
The case it was in had seen better days so I made this one myself out of some extra oak from a reno my parents did a while back. I think it turned out quite nicely!

Nice 99K made in 1958 (if I got the serial number correctly).
It should sew 1500 lb webbing without a problem.
She's beautiful...and I think your case turned out nicely too. A vintage machine in that condition with original attachments is a great find.
I think I'm seeing the same SN as gmcttr: http://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_mach...l-numbers.html but you can check here.
....and this thread is never done
Yep that's right. Its a 99K-31 from 1958. Still has the original manual too which was how I knew at first.
That is a great video showing how industrial machines operate. Thanks very informative and interesting.
